• W771127564 abstract "Krska J. Pharmacy in Public Health. London, England. Pharmaceutical Press; 2011. 284 pp, $ 49.99, ISBN 978-0853698791. Pharmacy in Public Health (2011) by Janet Krska is intended to inform pharmacists in the United Kingdom but also those from other countries about public health and the opportunities that pharmacists have to shape public health policy and the health outcomes of their community. The book not only discusses what public health is and what can be done by pharmacists, but also discusses evidence-based outcomes of these services from pharmacies. Though this book evaluates the place of pharmacists in public health, it has a large focus on public health in the United Kingdom which cannot be translated directly to pharmacists of other countries due to differences in healthcare systems and different societal needs. The author, Janet Krska, states in the preface for the book that her main goal is to help pharmacists in developing their public health skills (1). Krska accomplishes this through a 284-page book that is broken into 3 sections that discuss what public health is, developing services in pharmacies, and improving public health through these services. These sections are further broken down into 14 chapters that range from 12 to 24 pages and further develop and support the 3 sections by delivering information in an informative manner that uses charts and figures to supplement the more difficult topics, such as public needs assessment and service development. Krska devotes the first section to what public health is and supports this through the first 5 chapters (chapter 1 discusses public health in the UK; chapter 2, factors of health; chapter 3, role of pharmacy in public health; chapter 4, health data of different diseases in populations; and chapter 5, discusses international public health issues). Krska is able to clearly define public health and population needs and the role of the pharmacist in delivering services to meet these needs. While Krska effectively discusses the structure of public healthcare organization at different levels of government, Krska's discussion of international needs is weak, only covering 3 diseases in a few countries of Africa. Krska tries to also discuss opportunities for pharmacists volunteering in these developing nations but neglects to consider those nations that are already developed but have their own public health issues such as industrial waste and pollutants. The second section of the book is devoted to the development ofservice to promote public health. Againthis section is supported by 5 chapters (chapter 6 discusses public needs assessment and involvement; chapter 7, delivery of evidence-based medicine; chapter 8, different healthcare professions working together to promote health; chapter 9, developing services in pharmacies to meet public needs; and chapter 10, risk and benefits of human behaviors). While Krska again uses data that is more relevant to the UK, both in chapter 6 and chapter 7, the section as a whole is of high quality and supplemented with charts and figures to convey topics that can be easily followed in a logical manner when pharmacists attempt to develop their own public health projects. The author not only develops risk and benefits assessment of human behaviors, but also gives suggestions on how to interact with the public and convey how these health changes will impact them in a positive manner. …" @default.
